Abstract

The new emerging technologies, such as Internet of Things (IoT), big data analytics, cloud computing and rapid advances in smart software/hardware systems continue to enhance industrials capabilities for the development of efficient Digital Twins (DT). While this emerging DT is seen as a promising track for achieving smart integrated product design processes, industrials and researchers are still confronted to a set of challenges in DT development related to semantic interoperability, effective integration between the virtual and physical entities and the persistent need of inherent reasoning abilities in the developed design frameworks. In response to this increasing interest and challenges, we explore in this paper the potentialities of using DT-driven approaches in complex industrial product design, we identify the main remaining and future challenges to achieve seamless integration and smart abilities all throughout the product design process and we propose a new DT-driven approach for smart product design that combines the potentialities of the new technologies such as IoT and Big Data Analytics with the potentialities of inference ontologies, particularly their expressiveness and reasoning abilities. An industrial case of study is developed to illustrate the application of the proposed DT-driven design approach.
